NeTS FIND: A Network-Wide Hashing Infrastructure for Monitoring and Measurement

当今互联网的一个关键问题是，基本的测量和监控功能从一开始就没有内置。尽管已经添加了基础设施，并创建了临时解决方案来监控和测量各种互联网行为，但我们仍然对互联网知之甚少。 下一代互联网将需要一个从一开始就更加强调自我监测和自我衡量的基础设施。 这项研究的重点是提供一个几乎无处不在的，灵活的哈希基础设施，允许各种网络测量和监控任务的近似方案的价值。 重点是部署基于哈希的结构的巨大价值，包括其相对简单性，灵活性和成本效益。 更广泛的影响：这种基础设施的目标不仅是处理今天的网络中已经出现的问题，而且还提供一个通用框架，用于处理未来可能出现的其他目前未知的问题。 预计这样的基础设施将被证明是非常有价值的，它将成为互联网设备标准架构的一部分。

One of the key problems in today's Internet is that basic measuring and monitoring functionality has not been built in from the outset.Although infrastructure has been added and ad hoc solutions have been created to allow monitoring and measurement of various Internet behaviors, we still don't know a great deal more about the Internet. The next-generation Internet will require an infrastructure that gives more emphasis to self-monitoring and self-measurement from the beginning. This research focuses on the value of providing a near-ubiquitous, flexible hashing infrastructure that allows approximation schemes for a variety of network measurement and monitoring tasks. The focus is motivated by the great value of deploying hash-based structures, including their relative simplicity, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. Broader Impact: The goal of such an infrastructure would not only be to handle issues that have already arisen in today's network, but also to provide a general framework for handling additional, currently unknown problems that may arise in the future. It is anticipated that such an infrastructure will prove sufficiently valuable that it will be made part of the standard architecture for Internet devices.
